Tire removal assembly

Abstract

A tire removal assembly includes a press that has a base and an actuator. The base may be positioned on a support surface and the actuator is spaced from the base. The actuator may be fluidly coupled to an air source thereby facilitating the actuator to move downwardly with respect to the base. The actuator is biased to move upwardly with respect to the base. The press may have a tire positioned between the base and the actuator thereby facilitating the actuator to engage the tire such that the actuator breaks a bead on the tire.

I claim:

The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said actuator comprises a piston being coupled to and extending upwardly from said top side, said piston including a rod, said rod extending downwardly through said second arm, said rod having a distal end with respect to said piston, said rod comprising an upper half being slidably coupled to a bottom half, said bottom half having a plurality of apertures extending therethrough, said apertures being spaced apart from each other and distributed along said bottom half. 
     
     
       3. The assembly according to  claim 2 , further comprising a bolt extending through said upper half and engaging a selected one of said apertures such that said rod has a telescopically adjustable length. 
     
     
       4. The assembly according to  claim 2 , further comprising an air port being coupled to said piston such that said air port is in fluid communication with an interior of said piston, said air port being configured to be fluidly coupled to the air source thereby facilitating said rod to be selectively urged downwardly with respect to said piston. 
     
     
       5. The assembly according to  claim 2 , further comprising a biasing member being positioned within said piston, said biasing member engaging said rod such that said biasing member biases said rod upwardly in said piston when said piston is uncoupled from the air source. 
     
     
       6. The assembly according to  claim 2 , further comprising a plate being coupled to said distal end of said rod, said plate being oriented transverse with respect to said rod, said plate being curved along a lateral axis wherein said plate is configured to coextensively engage an inner edge of the tire, said plate being configure to urge the inner edge away from a rim when said rod is urged downwardly. 
     
     
       7. The assembly according to  claim 1 , further comprising a pry bar having a first end and a second end, said pry bar including a hook being coupled to said first end such that an end of said hook is directed toward said second end, said pry bar being configured to be manipulated having said hook engaging the inner edge of the tire thereby facilitating said pry bar to remove the inner edge from the rim. 
     
     
       8. A tire removal assembly comprising:
 a press having a base and an actuator, said base being configured to be positioned on a support surface, said actuator being spaced from said base, said actuator being configured to be fluidly coupled to an air source thereby facilitating said actuator to move downwardly with respect to said base, said actuator being biased to move upwardly with respect to said base, said press being configured to have a tire positioned between said base and said actuator thereby facilitating said actuator to engage the tire such that said actuator breaks a bead on the tire; 
 a shaft being coupled to and extending upwardly from a top end of said piston, said shaft being centrally positioned on said piston, said shaft having a distal end with respect to said piston; 
 a disk being positioned on said shaft such that said disk is spaced from said top end, said shaft extending upwardly through said disk, said disk being configured to have the tire placed thereon; and 
 a pin being coupled to and extending upwardly from said top end, said pin engaging said disk such that said pin inhibits said disk from rotating on said shaft. 
 
     
     
       9. The assembly according to  claim 8 , further comprising a handle being removably coupled to said distal end of said shaft, said handle having a grip being oriented transverse to said handle, said grip being configured to be spaced above the tire when the tire is positioned on said disk. 
     
     
       10. A tire removal assembly comprising:
 a press having a base and an actuator, said base being configured to be positioned on a support surface, said actuator being spaced from said base, said actuator being configured to be fluidly coupled to an air source thereby facilitating said actuator to move upwardly and downwardly with respect to said base, said press being configured to have a tire positioned between said base and said actuator thereby facilitating said actuator to engage the tire such that said actuator breaks a bead on the tire, said base having a top surface and a front edge, said press including a mount having a first arm being directed away from a second arm, said first arm being coupled to and extending upwardly from said top surface, said second arm being spaced from said base, said second arm having a distal end with respect to said first arm, said distal end being directed toward said front edge, said second arm having a top side and a bottom side, said actuator comprising:
